He didn't make excuses, he literally said it's the same for everyone? We've not been at our best for a while (Bristol City early November?) but we totally bossed Huddersfield at their place in our last game but struggled to finish. I think if we'd have (deservedly) won that we'd have a lot more...

At risk of surprising everyone, Clive is wrong.

Yeah, possibly, I'd need to see it again too. What I do know is we lost 2 or 3 challenges in the box & allowed the ball to bounce straight to Bradshaw yet none of the defenders have been blamed as much as Wilson 🤷🏼‍♂️

Definitely but that doesn't necessarily equal a lack of desire. We looked rusty & lacking fitness which is understandable.

Well yes but needs must. The point is some have blamed him for the goal purely because of who he is when in reality he was blameless. Much like the guy behind me who berated Walker from the opening minute, it was already decided he was going to be terrible.

That wasn't the point I was making.

He wasn't. He's in the same boat as Walker & Sheaf though in that their cards are already marked before the game even starts.

Difficult to disagree with that. Kelly was so far off the pace it was painful to watch.

As I expected our starting XI is actually more weakened than theirs.

I'm telling you now there's no way their team will be as weak as everyone's making out. This 15 year old on the bench is to try & prove a point, like naming 2 keepers or only 4 subs etc like Mourinho used to do.

Not for me, far more pressing needs.

I see the wording their end has changed slightly now from only 14 players to only 14 first team players. In theory they could possibly still have their strongest XI available but with a weakened bench.

Not sure he can call in favours with MR anymore.

Kane was there, orange boots are the giveaway.

Possibly but we know he trained yesterday but there was no confirmation of Gyökeres in the photos. In terms of crucial I'd say any of Moore, Fadz, O'Hare or Gyökeres.

Can you say which players? By crucial I'm thinking Gyok?

Easy scapegoat.

That's only their 3rd this season tbf, we have had more than that. Chelsea have had 7.

They don't need to fake tests. It's 14 players available. I wouldn't be at all surprised if 1 of their currently available players picks up a "knock/minor injury" which combined with the Covid cases takes them below the 14 available threshold.
